Icon6 Wheel Spacers for EG

To make a long story short, I ordered 15x6.5 inch wheels 40mm offset without factoring in my Wilwood/Fastbrakes brake kit on my 1994 hatchcrap. Looks like the only real option is using wheel spacers in order to clear the calipers. Anyone have any feedback on Eibach hubcentric wheel spacers? It looks like I need to install extended wheels studs as well? Any feedback and experience with wheel spacers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You can use up to a 5mm spacer without changing to extended wheel studs.

I have used H&R spacers with no issues in the past.
